Economy
Value
Could take it apart and put it back together again myself. I thinks mine's the one they made earlier.
Costs
Can get cheap parts if you look around. It all adds up though. Spent about £1000 in a year.

Driving
Fear of it falling over when going round corners. Very scary. Would've been a good idea to include some brakes.

Performance? It's a 1.1

Living with it
Reliability
I have to open the bonnet every day to see what the problem is.
Image
Looks nice, from far away. But as you get closer you can see all the dents and rust.
Comfort
Seats are high up. Feels like you're driving an MPV.
